I’ll be the first to admit, I did not get my mother’s green thumb. She always brings me bright beautiful flowers, and within a couple weeks, end up being withered and brown. I found a great article with some Hard to Kill plants for people with that not so green thumb.

With the new year comes resolutions, big and small, tax season and MORE cold weather. The cold winter months are an ideal time for finishing or starting new indoor home projects. Have you considered doing small to large scale renovations in your home this winter?

So many people here in the great state of Idaho are outdoorsy, so it can be really hard to spend so much time indoors when the weather makes it impossible to play outside. When you have some little ones to entertain, the typical books, board games, and coloring books only get you so far. So, below we have compiled a list of some creative activities to help keep the cabin fever at bay.

What do we have to offer that the competition doesn’t? For starters, our team-based approach allows us to dedicate more of our time to our wonderful clients. We are also able to come together regularly to share our experiences and learn from one another how to be more effective.

Join us today for a recap of 2017 real estate, discussion about real estate misconceptions and how to make some new year resolutions for your home! We also have one of our preferred vendors, Joel Barber of Spectrum Services here to share with you what his company can offer you whether you currently rent, own a home or are in the process of buying or selling. Sit back, relax and enjoy!
